I am considering going with the 3500 venice but that would be another 90.00. not sure if the performance gain going from 3200 to 3500 justifies that.

Put the $90 towards better cooling, and other things that limit your OC potential like PSU, RAM, and MB.
 
I am not going to OC that much if I do at all. I think I may go with the 3500 and the Antec SmartPower 2.0 SP-450 450W Power Supply Retail ***Free 2nd Day*** to save a few bucks.
